Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries.United Scope manufactures microscopy equipment and accessories under the brand name AmScope.

  • Tons of fun! Great quality and value for $$
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
Great quality for price. Tons of fun for a first microscope for my 7 yr old grandson. Easy to use and the carry case is wonderful with places for all the items included plus a lil xtra. Highly recommend if purchasing for a first microscope! Very pleased.

  • Cheap but EXTREMELY effective
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
So I bought this as a gift for my niece and nephews we have been doing various science experiments and we've gotten to biology. My niece and nephews range from 3-year-olds to a 10-year-old. The oldest took to it very well and was able to use it on his own the littler ones needed assistance and couldn't really get the microscope to work properly. I was able to focus it and find the specimens under the microscope for them so they could look at it. They absolutely loved finding things in the backyard putting them on the slides and getting to see them underneath the microscope. I even tested the water in my turtle tank hence that nice little creature in one of the images. I would like to purchase more of these so each kid can have their own. But the microscope itself feels cheap. The body itself I think it is metal but it just feels so light. The actual neck of the microscope is plastic so are the dials to move it up and down and the light housing is plastic as well. That being said for the price and how amazing it actually works it's great. This was meant as just a small project for me and my nephews and niece and has only got them excited to do more. When they are older I might invest in a more high quality microscope but for anybody who is looking to do small experiments with children just for the fun of it this was an amazing buy. You have all the tools you need to get started and look at some small things. It gives you a few pre-made slides so you already have something to look at. The next addition we are going to get is to purchase some petri dishes and grow bacteria so that we can look at them underneath this microscope. For the price and the item that you get I could not be happier I would suggest purchasing if you have kids who are curious or you want to do some little STEM projects with them as well. It's a great starter for a cheap price to introduce them. ... show more

  • Great beginner's microscope
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
The Design reminds me of my first microscope, it is fun for kids and even adults to explore and learn. It is made of a durable metal frame, the weight attests to it being well made, and the light brightness allows you to see clearly, has a pamphlet with great ideas for use. I highly recommend

  • For kids but not a toy
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
Purchased for a 6 year old who has been asking for a microscope for a while. (Dad is a chemist) We were pleased with the quality and how much it was like a more serious microscope. No cutesy colorful plastic! The case was a big plus for keeping specimins and slides together. He was able to use it right away and was very engaged. Because it doesn't look like a toy we are hopeful that he will treat it like a serious tool to be treated with care, at least as much as a 6 year old can. ... show more

  • okay, but lacking quality
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
An okay, cheap microscope for trying out the scientific tool and process. It would probably be great for a particularly scientific young person. Wigglewarts and active adventurers . . . maybe not. I wanted the kids to be able to experience the microscopic world for their science lessons, and the process of preparation and careful use of the table-top microscope while we are educating remotely. Overall everything about it fits the price. My first thought seeing it out of the box was that it was a lot smaller than expected, which makes it harder to use. The chrome looking pieces are plastic and feel flimsy; the "scalpel" blade also seems to be plastic . . . To see if this was an item worth keeping I took a quick look at the prepared slides. I got it to focus fairly well at all three magnification levels with little interference. The slides were a little air bubbly but you could see the detail of the specimens. However, the clarity and color just wasn't spectacular comparatively (* see below). I ended up returning this for lack of quality, which adversely effects the interest in using it. * We had also purchased a couple pocket microscopes which were a huge hit - suited for exploring outdoors as well as desk learning. They have a clearer image (less magnification, but enough for our level of learning) and can go anywhere and produced a LOT of interest, which has led to more self-guided learning. I got some blank slides so they could practice making their own (but they aren't necessary) and it's enough for making science fun for our lessons. Plus they each got their own. ... show more

  • Great product and phenomenal customer service
Pattern Name: Microscope Kit Style: A) White Microscope Kit
I bought two as Christmas gifts , one for each of my grandsons. Its a great product and reasonably priced. With that being said, one of the microscopes was defective. Amazon’s customer service was excellent and it was quickly replaced. The replacement was also defective and way passed the return date because the boys had gone home before the replacement arrived, so we didn’t open it until they came back for the summer. I called Amazon and since it was way past, they couldn’t do anything but the representative I spoke with was very helpful in giving me the info I needed to contact the company. I called, and the person I spoke with gave me the info I needed to contact the correct person. I emailed that person and got a response within 24 hrs telling me what info I had to send, including the invoice. I didn’t have that, so back to Amazon. This rep was also fantastic and she promptly sent me a copy . I immediately sent it off to the company. Within a couple of hours of emailing the invoice, I received an email saying they were shipping the replacement within 24 hrs. Two days later I received the replacement. Great customer service, quality product, and fun while being educational. ... show more
